Help me Identify these 2 knives

Post by mike90 »

I found several old Case Knives in my grandad's shop these two were wrapped in the Case Proper Care of Your Pocket Knife Paper, they don't appear to have ever been used or sharpened. The black one, three blades has the CASE XX U.S.A. and 5 spots stamp which I believe means it is a 1975 the other side is stamped 087HE. The bone handled, two bladed, one has the CASE U.S.A. and 6 spots stamp so I think it is a 1974, the other side is stamped 6244. Any ideas what I've got, what they might be worth?

hello you have 2 nice little knives, the 6244 is a delrin handle Serpentine jack and the 087 is a junior stock knife. Now as far as a book price they should be priceless becouse they were your papaw's but they do book for $20 and $25 in mint condition. I hould take and put these knives up and pass them on down the line and maybe they will book for big money by time they get pass down 3 or 4 times . ::tu::
